Americans, most of them are party creatures, they have to have a party when they have nothing to do, they have to have a birthday, they have to have a marriage, they have to have a graduate, they have a baby, they have to have a party, and of course they have to have a party.

Anyway, as long as you want to think of a famous purpose, it can be a reason to party. This is actually the same as the Chinese dinner. There are also a lot of business collaborations, all of which are discussed at parties.

Parties in the United States can be roughly divided into three types according to the degree of formality: gathering, family, and banquet. The party that is being set up in front of you is a banquet party with a high degree of formality.

The lawn in front of the villa has been set up with long rows of tables, chairs and snacks and drinks, and a makeshift bar with two waiters who can brew coffee or cocktails on site.

Chen Wenhao and his entourage sat casually, no longer discussing business, chatting with each other, watching from a distance as the people of the party company were busy entering and exiting in front of the villa, carrying all kinds of items, and a delivery truck was parked in the open space next to the villa.

Seeing that Chen Wenhao could see it, Xiao Zha introduced him, "This party company is very well-known in the industry, with branches in many big cities in the United States, and the service staff have strict review and confidentiality agreements, and many celebrity parties in Beverly Hills like to choose this." In the past two years, they have also done well in Silicon Valley. ”

"As long as you can afford to pay, this company will always surprise your party." Jim concluded.

……

As the night wore on, the party began, and the guests arrived, as Jim said, mostly from the elite of Silicon Valley's IT scene. One after another, luxury cars drove into the open space in front of the villa, but out of the luxury cars were mostly young men in T-shirts and jeans.

"It's a dinner party in Silicon Valley, and I think not having to wear a suit is the greatest happiness compared to other regions." Xiao Zha and Chen Wenhao both stayed in the lounge on the second floor of the villa. Looking down from the lounge window, you can see the main entrance to the villa.

Jim, as the host of the place and the host of the party, naturally greets guests at the door.

In the evening, the party began, and most of the guests knew each other, so it was easy to get into a conversation. After all, this part of Silicon Valley is big or small, it's all in this circle, and no one knows whom. Therefore, when Chen Wenhao appeared, as an unfamiliar face, it attracted the attention of most people in the audience.

Before Jim could introduce him, most people had already guessed Chen Wenhao's identity. In fact, from the moment he stepped out of the plane and set foot on American soil, news about him frequently appeared in the local media and on the Internet.

For Americans, there are too many titles worth paying attention to in the head of this Chinese. A self-made young billionaire and the owner of a 10-billion-dollar company.

The most important thing is that, unlike the vast majority of Chinese IT companies' products, which are not known to European and American users, this company's products have been breaking the expectations of the industry and the market since their launch, breaking through the limitations of geography and culture, and having a large number of foreign users. What's more, there are three American companies in the list of shareholders of this company, which is easier to identify with.

However, although there are many media reports, there are few companies that can actually interview him. Therefore, these IT elites in Silicon Valley are not only no strangers to Chen Wenhao's deeds, but also full of curiosity. Not long after Chen Wenhao appeared, people kept taking the initiative to communicate with him, and some people took a fancy to the market potential of artificial intelligence and tried to find cooperation. Chen Wenhao was overwhelmed and became the most eye-catching person at the banquet.

But the harvest is also a lot, a lot of thinking collisions during the discussion, have given Chen Wenhao a lot of inspiration, aside from the alien technology brought by the small card, he himself is also a senior member of the IT industry for more than ten years, and the ability is also guaranteed, otherwise it would be impossible to achieve the position of vice president in the previous company.

Generally, there are no seats in the hall for such parties, and it is more suitable for communication for chatting people to stand in a circle. In the middle of the conversation, a white man of about fifty years old came over with a glass of champagne in his hand, and he stood out in a suit and leather shoes among a group of young people dressed casually.

"Mr. Karl!" ……

Many people greeted the man warmly, and a senior executive who had been chatting with Chen Wenhao before saw that he didn't know the person he came, so he whispered, "Mr. Carr is a well-known individual investor in the United States, and his interest has shifted to the IT field in recent years, and several companies here have taken his funds." IBM, Apple, Microsoft, and many large companies have him on the list of individual shareholders. ”

"I'm sorry to interrupt the conversation of the young leaders, but I want to have a few words with Mr. Chen Wenhao, I don't know if it's okay?" Carl moved gracefully, raised his glass slightly and smiled to greet everyone.

"Of course." It can be seen that Carl is quite well-known in the industry, and everyone is willing to sell his face. After all, for the gold-swallowing monster of IT companies, big financiers are worthy of respect.

Seeing the crowd disperse, Carl approached Chen Wenhao, "Welcome to California." I've been following you and your company for a long time, great products, the first step to connecting the world. He looked at Xiao Zha who was talking to someone in the distance, "No wonder you and Mark are partners." ”

"Thanks for the compliment. Although I think connecting the world should be Xiaozha's dream. Chen Wenhao was still not sure of the other party's intention, and said casually.

"You guys seem to have had some minor trouble lately? I heard that the judge's attitude is also a bit ambiguous? Carl heard the perfunctory words in Chen Wenhao's words, but he didn't seem to care, but changed the topic.

"That's the main reason I'm here. But I believe it's just a minor nuisance. Speaking of this topic, Chen Wenhao raised his vigilance.

"Mr. Chen may not know much about me, but I and the Foundation behind me still have a little energy. For example, to get this lawsuit done? ”

"What about the conditions?"

"We are very interested in AI-like technology, and this technology should be applied to a larger field. We hope to get the full information of this technology, the price you can open, and we can promise that the products that use this technology will not be used in the consumer field and will not compete with your company's products. Carl's eyes burned and he looked at Chen Wenhao, "Or can we buy the shares in your hand, how about 30%?" ”

Chen Wenhao felt a huge wave in his heart, it seems that this is the representative sent by the behind-the-scenes forces that set off this turmoil. To this, he just wants to say one word, no!

This is not a consultation, but a threat! And it was this force that once wanted to shoot down the civil airliner he was flying on, and there were more than 200 passengers on it at that time. If it wasn't for Xiaoka's ability to counter the other party's military drones at that time, he and his more than 200 passengers would have been the ghosts of the Pacific Ocean by now.

What's more, the other party's suggestion looks generous, but it is actually full of evil. Related products do not enter the consumer field, but enter the military field, and then the source of technology will be disseminated, and they will not be invited to drink tea by the relevant domestic departments to have ghosts, and they will not even be able to get long-term meal tickets together. Even if the person is okay in the end, but the company will definitely not be able to open in China, leaving the country where it is difficult for foreign forces to intervene, with the strength that the other party has shown, there are countless ways to take control of the company.

Receiving the answer of refusal, Carl did not move, he slowly drank the champagne in the glass, "Maybe it is a little too sudden, Mr. Chen can think about it again in the next few days, and within three days, my promise will still be valid." Leaving behind a delicate business card, Carl left without any ease.

……

In the evening, in the villa, the party had long since ended, and several representatives of the shareholders of the Kamodo company were still sitting around the long table in the hall.

"Carl is said to have close ties with several consortia, including arms dealers on the East Coast." After making a few phone calls, Si Ze learned some information about Karl.

"I asked, no one sent him an invitation, he came with an executive from an IT company, he was one of the individual investors in this company. It should have been specially for Chen, the security personnel had just checked the surveillance camera, and after he finished talking to Chen, he left. Jim said about the investigation.

"If there is an authorization document that needs to be signed by me, it will be given to me tomorrow morning, and I will hand over the follow-up matters to Henry. I will return to China in the afternoon. Chen Wenhao just listened to the situation in front of him and didn't speak until now.

The opponent is obviously powerful and bold, and there is no need to spend it on the opponent's turf. He will definitely not agree to the other party's conditions, and he will think of countermeasures when he returns to China. In addition, he still thinks about the drone.

"Although we don't think the other party is so bold to go straight to the black, but that's fine." Jim and Si Ze looked at each other and nodded, "Chen, I'm sorry to put you in this situation. ”

"Don't worry about the documents, I'll let them prepare them overnight." Xiao Zha hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Leave tomorrow?" Are you worried that they will come hard? This is America! ”

It's because it's America that I'm leaving! Chen Wenhao slandered in his heart: You think like this because you don't know how bold the other party is, but unfortunately the real reason can't be said to the outside world.
